What took you so long OTIS? No longer will you have an excuse like not having the correct caliber brush or you can’t take the floor plate off to clean your magazines. Why, because OTIS has thought of everything. It’s virtually impossible to find a complicated cleaning task on a Glock but what I found most laborious is taking the magazine apart, which requires removing the base plate. Industry responded by introducing a magazine base plate disassembly tool which OTIS includes this kit.
Going through boot camp a number of years ago we had two classes of dirt, dirty dirt, for which you were PTed until you collapse and clean dirt which you had to pick off your garment. However, a Glock that has had upwards of 500 rounds fired through it is the epitome of dirty dirt. Compared to the standard issue 1911, Glock’s are uncannily simple to maintain. One of Glock’s selling points is the ease with which you can field strip the pistol to tidy things up or perform basic maintenance. So why do we see so many dirty Glocks? Gaston Glock knew that scrounges would be buying his pistols so he designed them for absolute reliability. Recognizing that Glock owners tend to be less than immaculate, OTIS Tech, a leading supplier of weapon cleaning systems to NATO and the DOD decided they would remove any and all excuses for not cleaning a Glock, and in 2021 introduced their Professional Cleaning Kit for Glocks.
If you need to disassemble your Glock further than the basic fieldstrip, you’ll need a Glock disassembly tool which is a pin pusher that’s generally sold separately. This too is standard equipment in the OTIS Professional Cleaning Kit for Glocks.

In addition to all of the previously mentioned features, OTIS incorporated three Ripcords, one in each caliber supported, for the expedient at the range cleaning. Everything you could need to thoroughly clean and maintain your Glock Perfection is included in the Otis Tech Professional Clean Kit for Glocks. A squeaky clean Glock is within your reach and this kit is your path to achieving that goal for a modest outlay of $99.99 but you’ll want to shop around for your best price. Saving the best for last, it works equally well on any 9mm, 40 S&W and .45 ACP pistol. -SP
